What is comparative police
system?
It is the process of outlining the similarities
and differences of one police system to
another in order to discover insights in the
field of international policing.
What is GLOBALIZATION?

Is the system of interaction among the countries of the world


in order to develop the global economy. Globalization refers
to the integration of economics and societies all over the
world. Globalization involves technological, economic,
political, and cultural exchanges made possible largely
by advances in communication, transportation, and
infrastructure.
GLOBALIZATION DEFINED
Marfleet and Kiely (1998:3)
• defined globalization in reference to a world in which
societies, cultures, politics and economics have in
some sense come closer together.
The reason as to why globalisation is linked to crime
rests on the facts that falling frontiers between states
brought about by:
• (i) ease of migration in terms of travel,
• (ii) audio visual and cyberspace communication are
bringing many benefits, but they are also making it
easier for criminal organizations to be active across the
globe and within states (Findlay, 2000; 59-73).
Effects of Globalization
Negative Effects

• White Collar Crimes & Labor exploitation


• Job insecurity/ unstable due to increased competition
• International crimes like human trafficking
• World Terrorism, Cyber crimes, Drug trafficking
• Human rights violations on global scale
• Bad effects of foreign culture to local cultures
• Deadly diseases spread on global scale
• Price increase on commodities
• Local industries taken over by foreign multinationals
EFFECTS TO POLICE SERVICE
Undeniably crime is goes global also.
• The crime that we have before is no longer
local but it goes global.
• Meaning it’s been globalized because some of
the local crimes now are being link globally
and sometimes has an international backing
from international criminal organization.
Effects of Globalization to Law Enforcement
(V. Delos Santos)
1. The facilitation of transnational crimes and criminals can be
easily achieved.
2. There is a need for transnational policing. The cooperation
among police organizations in the world is vital.
3. Training instructions for incoming law enforcement officers
must include advance computer to prepare them as cyber
cops so they can be better prepared to deal with cyber
crimes.
4. Development of new strategies to deal with international
organized crimes is a must.
5. Provisions of law enforcement with updated legislations
related to modernization theories of crime.
Threats on law enforcement
Some threats brought about by globalization are:
– Increasing volume of human rights violations
evident by genocide or mass killing
– The underprivileged gain unfair access to global
mechanisms on law enforcement and security
– Conflict between nations
– Transnational criminal networks for drug
trafficking, money laundering, terrorism, etc
Opportunities for law enforcement
While globalization brings the threats and many other threats
to law enforcement, opportunities like the following are
carried:
• Creation of International tribunals to deal with
human rights problems
• Humanitarian interventions that can promote universal
norms and link them to the enforcement power of
states
• Transnational professional network and
cooperation against transnational crimes
• Global groups for conflict monitoring and coalitions
across transnational issues
Characteristics of Globalization
These include greater international movement of:
• Commodities - trading prices for oil, gold, silver, copper and more
• Money - generally accepted medium of financial exchange
• Information - is that which informs
• People -
• Technology -
• Organizations -
• legal systems -
• Infrastructures -
The actual existence of some of these trends is debated.
THE ASPECTS OF GLOBALIZATION
Worldwide Net of Communication & Info -
worldwide availability of knowledge & info -new
chances to influence world society

Economy:world trade = “inland market”


new mobility of capital, goods, services

Society: the world as “global village” - migration + the


importance of cultures and identities

Security threatened by new dangers - increase of


private violence - “new wars” - grey zone: security
internal/ external - terrorism

Political: evidenced when governments create


international rules and institutions to deal with issues
such as trade, human rights, and the environment.
What are the probable solutions to counter the effects
of globalization in the police service?

• Actually - there is quite a similarity in the duties and


methods of policing worldwide but that has more to do
with the universality of psychology and the human
condition and how criminals think, act, and are caught,
more than anything to do with policing with a global
mindset.
1. What makes a particular crime to
be considered a global problem?
A crime can be said to be a global problem if it
meets any one of the two criteria:
(i) If a particular crime has an accentuating
character in most nations on the globe.
This crime does not necessarily need to have
actors inducing it across frontiers.
(ii) the crime is occurring across frontiers and
there are social actors inducing who traverse
frontiers.
The following are considered
as critical global crimes :
• Dealing In illicit drugs
• Illegal trafficking in weapons
• Illegal trafficking in human beings
• Money Laundering
• Corruption
• Violent Crimes including terrorism
• War crimes
What makes these crimes to merit concern is
that they have unwarranted effects.
These unwarranted effects bring us to examine
the effects of global crimes.
2. What are the criminogenic effects
of globalization?
• Global crime as a new phenomenon is seen to
profoundly affect international and national economies,
politics, security, and, ultimately, societies at large
(Eduardo, 2002)
• It has been seen that global crime groups have the
power to criminalize politics, business and the police,
developing efficient networks, extend their reach deep
and wide. All have operations extending beyond
national borders, and they are now developing strategic
alliances linked in a global network, reaping the benefits
of globalisation." (HDR, 1999: 5 and 42)
• Criminogenic: Producing or tending to produce crime or criminality
3. What are the links between
globalization and crime?
• The reason as to why globalisation is linked to crime
rests on the facts that falling frontiers between states
brought about by
(i) ease of migration in terms of travel,
(ii) audio visual and cyberspace communication are
bringing many benefits, but they are also making it
easier for criminal organizations to be active across the
globe and within states (Findlay, 2000; 59-73).
• Whereas the scourge of organized crime is not new,
criminals have been taking advantage of fast moving
technological advances such as the Internet, overall
globalization and the freedom of circulation and
establishment of global markets.
How to Deal with Globalization
The first phenomenon affecting local law enforcement is
globalization.
• History has taught that globalization has been an agent of
change for hundreds of years. Historical events such as the
discovery of America by Europeans and the opening of the Suez
Canal have changed our expectations, aspirations, and
capabilities. The Suez Canal, for instance, shortened the
European sea trade route to India by 5,800 miles, making the
world a smaller place.
• The only restriction that limits globalization is
government, which for criminals is an obstacle easily overcome.
overcome.
The Suez Canal
• The Suez canal is a
waterway
connecting the
Mediterranean Sea
to the Red Sea
through
the Isthmus of
Suez. It was
opened in
1869 after 10 years
of construction.

Changing relationship of
between Globalization
and crime
What do we need in changing relationship
between globalization and crime?

• Clearly, when it comes to people trafficking, the smuggling of


migrants, cocaine and heroine trafficking, firearms trafficking, the
smuggling of natural resources, the illicit trade in counterfeit goods,
maritime piracy and cyber crime, some kind of international
cooperation is required.
• Without any kind of international cooperation, it would be difficult
for criminals to be prosecuted, as it would be impossible to gather
enough evidence to prove their guilt beyond reasonable doubt.
What is International cooperation?
• International cooperation refers to a group of actions and/or
resources exchanged between actors from different countries,
voluntarily and according to their own interests and strategies
• The interaction of persons or groups of persons representing
various nations in the pursuit of a common goal or interest.
Example of the relationship between
globalization and crime
• Drug trafficking is one example of the relationship between
globalization and crime, but there are certainly plenty of others and
often it is developing nations that bear the brunt of criminal
activity.
• Natural resources are stolen and taken to the West; poor
inhabitants are told a better life awaits them abroad when the
reality is very different, as they are forced into prostitution when
they arrive; guns end up in the wrong hands which fuels conflict.
END OF THE TOPIC GLOBALIZATION
WHAT IS
Transnational Crime?
a crime perpetuated by organized criminal
groups which the aim of committing one or
more serious crimes or offenses in order to
obtain directly or indirectly, a financial or other
material benefits committed through crossing of
borders or jurisdictions.
Definition:

• Criminologist use the term


TRANSNATIONAL CRIME to Refer to
criminal activities, transactions, or
schemes that violates the laws of
more than one country or have
direct impact on a foreign country.

: TRANSNATIONAL CRIME
Transnational or Borderless crime
According to the United Nations Convention of Transnational
Organized Crime, an offense is transnational if it:
• Is committed in more than one state;
• Is committed in one state but a substantial part of its
preparation, planning, direction or control takes
place in another state;
• Is committed in one state but involves
organized crime group that engages in criminal
activities in more than one state; or
• Is committed in one state but has subs effects
in another state.
It specifically targets three types of criminals:
["those who operate in more than one country...,
[those] who do not travel at all but whose crimes affect other countries...;
and [those] who commit a crime in one country and flee to another"

finance illegal operations and to prevent
governments getting their hands on proceeds of
crime
• Perpetrators in some instances willing and able to
use violence against authorities and innocent
bystanders
Asian Organized Crime
Transnational organized crime in East Asia is
dominated by non state actors principally
Chinese triads, the Japanese yakuza and
Chinese and Vietnamese ethnic gangs who
operate independently and in association with
the triads and yakuza.

 Corruption and Bribery of  Theft of art and artifacts


public and political officials
 Trafficking in persons
 Environmental crime
 Trafficking in human body
 Drug Trafficking parts

 Arms Trafficking  Terrorism and others


Money Laundering
Rank #1 on the list because of its massive impact on the
economy of the entire world.
• Criminals who get their money from illegal actions, such as
prostitution, smuggling or computer fraud typically launder
their money in order not to attract the attention of
authorities.
Money laundering is done in three main ways:
1. disguising the source of the money
2. such as disguising a prostitution ring as a massage parlor,
changing the form
3. such as changing cash into a money order, or moving the
funds such as taking money from one large bank account
and putting it in several smaller accounts under different
names.

Terrorism
What is Terrorism?
Terrorism is destruction of people or property by people not acting
on behalf of an established government for the purpose of
redressing a real or imaginary injustice attributed to an
established government and aimed directly or indirectly at an
established government.
Not all cases of destruction of people or property are terrorism. The
important definitive characteristics of terrorism are:
1. the act of destruction is performed by a person or group of
persons not acting on behalf of an established government ,
2. the act of destruction is performed to redress a real or imaginary
injustice, and
3. the act is aimed directly or indirectly at an established
government, who is seen as the cause of the injustice.
4 Key Elements of Terrorism
• Terrorism is premeditated
• It is political
• It is aimed at civilians
• It is carried out by sub – national groups
OCG DISTINGUISHED FROM
TERRORISM:

• Organized crime groups are motivated by


- money
• Terrorists are motivated by -ideology
TYPES OF TERRORISM
• DOMESTIC/NATIONAL TERRORISM based and
operate entirely within a certain country.
• TRANSNATIONAL TERRORISM terrorist groups who operate across
national borders, whose actions and political aspirations may affect
individuals of more than one nationality.
• INTERNATIONAL TERRORISM foreign based and is directed
against a country by countries or groups outside that country.
Characteristics of Terrorism

• Distinction between domestic and international terrorism, i.e.,


Oklahoma City – September 11, 2001.

• Political in aims and motives.

• Exploitation of fear (terror) through violence or the threat


of violence.

• Psychological effects (fear through intimidation).

• Perpetrated by a subnational group or non-state entity.


Characteristics of Terrorism
(cont’d)

• Designed to create power when there is no power.

• To terrorists, there are no rules of warfare or codes of conduct.

• The goal is that through the publicity generated from their


violence, terrorists will have the leverage to effect political
change.

• Perpetrated by some organizational entity with an identifiable


chain of command capable of conspiratorial conduct.
Terrorism Typologies
• Nationalist: seek to form a separate state for their own
national group, i.e., freedom fighters. Examples include:
IRA, Basque Fatherland and Liberty, and Kurdistan Worker’s
Party.

divinely commanded purposes – a spiritual rather than a
military objective. Examples include: Al-Qaeda, HAMAS,
Hezbollah, Aum Shinrikyo.
Terrorism Typologies
(cont’d)

• State-Sponsored: Used by radical states as foreign


policy – provide a cost effective way to wage war covertly
through terrorists, i.e., U.S. embassy – Tehran (1979). States
considered to sponsor terrorism include: Cuba, Iran, Iraq,
Libya, North Korea, Sudan, Syria.
Terrorism Typologies
(cont’d)

• Left-Wing, Right-Wing, and Anarchist: Left-wing


groups seek to destroy capitalism and replace it with a
communist social regime. Right-wing groups seek to create
fascists states. Anarchists are revolutionaries who seek to
overthrow all forms of government. Examples include: Left-
Wing (Red Brigade, Baader-Meinhof Gang, Japanese Red
Army); Right-Wing (Neo-Nazis, skinheads, white
supremacists); and, Anarchist (contemporary anti-
globalization groups).

Cont;
• This problem of drugs is not only restricted to
a few countries but is global.
• For instance, the September 11 attacks is
linked to political terrorism under the hand of
terrorist or armed organizations through drug
trafficking. According to TNI (2003) many
armed conflict taking place may be financed
by illegal sources, of which a part derives from
drugs.
Drug Trafficking
• A report said the global drug trade generated an
estimated US$321.6 billion in 2005.
• With a world GDP of US$36 trillion in the same year,
the illegal drug trade may be estimated as slightly
less than 1% of total global commerce.
• Consumption of illegal drugs is widespread globally.
• Illicit drug trafficking in the Philippines remains
difficult to bring to a halt due to new modus
operandi and the involvement of persons of
authority.

COMPUTER/CYBER CRIMES

65
Cyber/Computer Crimes
Computer crime, or cybercrime, refers to any crime that
involves a computer and a network. The computer may have
been used in the commission of a crime, or it may be the
target.

Internationally, both governmental and non-state actors


engage in cybercrimes, including espionage, financial theft,
and other cross-border crimes.
Activity crossing international borders and involving the
interests of at least one nation state is sometimes referred to
as cyber warfare.

The international legal system is attempting to hold actors


accountable for their actions through the International Criminal
Court. 66

COMPARATIVE POLICE SYSTEM
NETCRIME
Netcrime refers to criminal exploitation of the
Internet.
Such crimes may threaten a nation’s security and
financial health. Issues surrounding this type of
crime have become high-profile, particularly those
surrounding cracking, copyright infringement,
child pornography, and child grooming. There
are also problems of privacy when confidential
information is lost or intercepted, lawfully or
otherwise.
Law Enforcement
Challenges With cybercrime
• Law enforcement has also increased and
stepped their game up. Just as crime has
developed with the use of computers, it’s
been a bit challenging to actually find and
convict criminals.
• Computers can be used to help facilitate a
crime, be the actual target, or even an
instrument of the crime.
Cyber-Crime
• Cyber-Crime:
“..a crime committed where the use or knowledge of
computers is required”.
(e.g., denial of service, attacking passwords)
• Computer-assisted Crime:
“a crime in which the computer is used to assist in
perpetrating the crime”.
(e.g., fraud, child pornography)
Various categories and types of
cybercrimes
Cybercrimes can be basically divided into 3
major categories:

1. Cybercrimes against persons.

2. Cybercrimes against property.

3. Cybercrimes against government.


ROLE OF COMPUTER IN CRIME
Professionals who involve in these
cybercrimes are called
a. Hacker Answer is: b. Cracker
b. Cracker
c. Cyber criminal crackers sole aim is to break into secure
systems, hackers are more interested in
d. Cyber pro gaining knowledge about computer systems
and possibly using this knowledge for playful
pranks.
Although hackers still argue that there's a big
difference between what they do and what
crackers do, the mass media has failed to
understand the distinction, so the two terms -
- hack and crack -- are often used
interchangeably
Hackers
• Definitions:
– 1) “an expert at programming and
solving problems with a computer”.
– 2) “a person who illegally gains access to
and sometimes tampers with information in
a
computer system”.

speed, mobility, flexibility, significance and
value of transactions in and for which cyber
crimes are committed profoundly challenge

Corruption and Bribery of Public
Officials

Copyright © 2009 LEA 6. 80


Definition of Corruption
• The most commonly used definition of
corruption refers to the abuse of a public
position for private gain
• Corruption is facilitated by bribery,
embezzlement and theft but also by nepotism
and cronyism
• Corruption affects both the public and private
sectors and is often subdivided into grand and
petty corruption
• It ranges from the provision of small gifts to the
misappropriation of public assets at the highest
levels
Causes of Corruption
The three most important causes of corruption
for both high and low income countries are
estimated to be:
– Norms and values of public servants
– Lack of control, supervision, auditing
– Interrelationships – business, politics and state
Scope of Corruption
The size and incidence of corruption might be
attributed to four key factors:
– The level of public benefits available
– The discretionary power of officials
– The level of risk associated with corrupt deals
– The relative bargaining power of the
corruptor and the corruptee
Transnational Crime and Corruption

Corrupt acts include:


– Bribing or offering to bribe public officials
– Solicitation or acceptance by a public official,
directly or indirectly, of an undue advantage to
refrain from acting in the exercise of his or her
official duties
– OECD Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development-
– Foreign Bribery Convention and UNCAC
United Nation Convention Against Corruption-

– have focused on these forms of corruption


Corruption

• Corruption is seen as the oldest


form of transnational crime
which is prevalent in all kind of
societies whether it is
democratic or under military
rule.
• Thus globalization can be held as
a main factor for the existence of
corruption in contemporary
societies which shows a strong
partnership between criminals
and white collar officials.
• Human Trafficking involves the recruitment,
transport, harboring, or sale of persons,
within or across national borders, for the
purpose of exploiting their labor.

• Trafficked persons are forced into


prostitution, domestic servitude, bonded
sweatshop labor, and other kinds of work
slavery-like practices.

• Trafficked persons are also victims of organ


removal and sale.
• Human trafficking is the acquisition of
people by improper means such as force,
fraud or deception, with the aim of
exploiting them.
• Smuggling migrants involves the
procurement for financial or other material
benefit of illegal entry of a person into a
State of which that person is not a national
or resident.
Human Trafficking and Human Smuggling

• Trafficking in person
Usually involves coercion
Characterized by subsequent exploitation after
the illegal entry of a person into a foreign country.
Considered a human rights issue

• Human Smuggling
Usually does not involve coercion
Characterized by facilitating, for an illegal entry
of a person into a foreign country
Considered a migration concern

CAUSES OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING

• Poverty
• Uneven economic development
• Family orientation & values
• Weak enforcement of laws
• Corruption
• Immediate benefits of working abroad
ILLEGAL RECRUITMENT
R.A. 8042

Illegal Recruitment shall mean any act


of canvassing, enlisting, contracting,
transporting, utilizing, hiring or procuring of
workers which includes referring, contract
services, promising or advertising for
employment abroad, whether for profit or
not, when undertaken by a non-license or
non-holder of authority
Modus Operandi of Illegal
Recruiters
• Tourist Worker Scheme – workers leave the
country as tourists but are actually leaving for
employment abroad.
• Escort Services – workers are “escorted” at
the airports and seaports and allowed to leave
even without the required travel documents
• Blind Ads – advertisements for overseas
employment published in the dailies do not
indicate the name of the recruiter but
provides a P.O. Box to which applications may
be submitted.
• By Correspondence – applicants are encouraged to
submit their requirements through mail together
with seemingly minimal fee.
• Backdoor Exit – workers leave through the southern
ports of exit where immigration control is lax. They
usually leave on cargo ships or on boats.
• Assumed identity – workers leave under another
name either using the name of another worker or
through the “baklas system” or obtaining passports
through fake birth certificates and other documents.
Minors are usually deployed through this scheme.
• Direct hiring – workers are recruited directly by
the foreign employer and deployed either as
tourists or through any of the other illegal means.
• Trainee-Worker Scheme – workers are recruited
and deployed as trainees on a training agreement.
More often, HRM students leaving in the guise of
a traineeship program for hotels abroad but
eventually landing jobs in hotels/restaurants
abroad.
• Visa Assistance or Immigration Consultancy
Scheme – entities operating under the guise
of consultancy or offering services for visa
facilitation are actually engaged in
recruitment by offering placement abroad on
immigrant visa. Some of them also operate
through the conduct of orientation seminars,
which are actually
recruiting activities.
• Camouflaged participants/representatives in
seminars/sports events – workers leave as
participants in seminars or sports events
abroad but actually intend to work there.

• Mail Order Bride Scheme – marriage is


arranged by brokers between Filipino women
and foreigners. The Filipino wife ends up
being a domestic helper to her husband and
his family or in worst situations abroad.
• Tie-Up or Kabit System – unlicensed
recruiters tie-up with licensed agencies and
recruit workers through the facilities of the
latter. Workers are either deployed under the
job order of the licensed agency but actually
work for another employer abroad or the
foreign principal of the unlicensed recruiter is
registered or accredited under the licensed
agency’s name.
ADOPTION METHOD
• Adoption of Children to smuggle out of the
country;
• Foreigners will pretend to adopt them; but
the reality, they will be sold to:
-labor markets
-Prostitution dens
FAMILY TOURS
• Organized by unscrupulous travel agency
to have one “bogus family”;
• Somebody will pretend as parents; and
• Children will use tampered documents
to complete the bogus family.

PEOPLE SMUGGLING

• People smuggling or trafficking is another form of


transnational crime which is the fastest growing
crime in contemporary world .According to the
reports of Australian Institute of criminology.
• Thus it could be clearly pointed out that people
smuggling is a well organized crime like other crimes
which involves less risk and maximum gains.
• In order to understand human trafficking we need to
look at the broader aspect of people smuggling
which will further clear our doubts and questions
regarding why people smuggling takes place and
what are the impacts of this criminal activity
People smuggling
• (also called human smuggling), under US law,
is "the facilitation, transportation, attempted
transportation or illegal entry of a person or
persons across an international border, in
violation of one or more countries' laws,
either clandestinely or through deception,
such as the use of fraudulent documents“.
People Smuggling
• Internationally, the term is understood as and often
used interchangeably with migrant smuggling,
• which is defined in the Protocol against the
Smuggling of Migrants by Land, Sea and Air,
supplementing the United Nations Convention
against Transnational Organized Crime as the
procurement, in order to obtain, directly or
indirectly, a financial or other material benefit, of the
illegal entry of a person into a state party of which
the person is not a national".

Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and


other halogenated ozone depleting
substances (ODS) are mainly
responsible for man-made chemical
ozone depletion. The total amount
of effective halogens (chlorine and
bromine) in the stratosphere can
be calculated and are known as the
equivalent effective stratospheric
chlorine (EESC).

Wild Life Crime
• Illegal wildlife trade has exploded to meet
increasing demand for elephant ivory, rhino
horns, and tiger products, particularly in Asia.
Controlled by dangerous crime syndicates,
wildlife is trafficked much like drugs or
weapons.
• Wildlife criminals often operate with
impunity, making the trade a low-risk/high-
profit business. Today, it is the fifth most
profitable illicit trade in the world, estimated
at up to $10 billion annually.
I am not a rug
Every part of the tiger—from whisker to tail—is traded in illegal wildlife
markets. Poaching is the most immediate threat to wild tigers. In
relentless demand, their parts are used for traditional medicine, folk
remedies, and increasingly as a status symbol in some Asian cultures.

Human trafficking is the illegal trade of human beings
for the purposes of reproductive slavery,
commercial sexual exploitation, forced labor, or
a modern-day form of slavery.
The Protocol to Prevent, Suppress and Punish
Trafficking in Persons, especially Women and
Children (also referred to as the Trafficking
Protocol) was adopted by the United Nations in
Palermo, Italy in 2000, and is an international
legal agreement attached to the United Nations
Convention against Transnational Organized
Crime.
The Trafficking Protocol is one of three Protocols

Sea Piracy
• "Piracy is the act of
boarding any vessel
with an intent to
commit theft or any
other crime, and with
an intent or capacity
to use force in
furtherance of that
act."

Copyright © 2009 LEA 6 140


SEA PIRACY

Piracy is often referred to as a


"movable crime" because new
hot spots tend to pop up all the
time while other locations return
to relative peace.
One thing for sure, for some time
now the 2 most dangerous areas
without peer are on either side of
the Strait of Malacca, between
Malaysia on one side and the
Indonesian Island of Sumatra on
the other.
Copyright © 2009 SEA PIRACY 141
TYPES OF PIRATES
• The first type of pirate is your standard issue low-life
criminal. These are scum who find it more expedient to
just steal your finger, instead of taking the time to remove
your ring.
• The second pirate type is a more sophisticated organized
crime group such as the five gangs thought to control a
significant percentage of piracy in Southeast Asia or one
of the several triads believed to control this crime in
China.
• The third and perhaps the most troubling type is the
"Semi-Official Military Pirate," examples of which have
been seen in China, Indonesia & Somalia and elsewhere.

Theft of Arts
• Art theft is usually for the purpose of resale or
for ransom (sometimes called artnapping).
• Stolen art is sometimes used by criminals to secure
loans. One must realize that only a small percentage
of stolen art is recovered. Estimates range from 5 to
10%.
• This means that little is known about the scope and
characteristics of art theft.
• According to UNESCO, and police statistics the
problem of art theft is number three in magnitude
after illicit trade in drugs and arms. However there is a
wide gap between these two (each over US$ 100
million, and art tyhrighet ©ft20: sAort Tmhefte US$ 6 million.

SELECTED POLICE MODELS


Paradigms of Democratic Policing

Fragmented System
Centralized System
Integrated System
Fragmented System: extremely decentralized

Characteristics:

1. Numerous Police Agencies


2. Severe limitations on police Authority
3. Tolerate a high degree of crime in exchange for
greater civil liberties

Examples: Belgium, Canada, The Netherlands,


Switzerland, and the United States
United States
• The American system of policing is unique by world
standards. There are approximately twenty thousand
state and local police agencies in the United States
(Maguire, et al.; Reaves and Goldberg, 1999).
• Other English-speaking democracies have a much smaller
number: Canada has 461, England has forty-three, India
has twenty-two, and Australia has eight (Bayley).
• Furthermore, the majority of police agencies in the
United States are only loosely connected to one another.
• Many have overlapping jurisdictions at multiple levels of
government, including city or town, township, county,
state, and federal agencies.
United States

Fragmented Systems of policing sometimes referred


to as « nonsystems » or as being « extremely
decentralized »

Three dominant features of policing in the United


States can be traced to its English heritage; These
features are:
United States
1. Limited Authority: The power of the police is clearly
circumscribed by law, individual liberty is jealously
protected at the expense of social control.
2. Local control.
The responsibility for providing police services rests
primarily on local governments.
While there are numerous variations within the
United States regarding the organization of local,
state, and federal police agencies, for the most part
policing in the United States is highly decentralized
United States
3. Fragmented law enforcement.
The responsibility for providing police services which is
borne predominantly by local agencies, is usually
divided among several different agencies
within an area.
This often leads to problems with
communication, cooperation, and control
am0ng agencies
Checks and balances/Separation
of powers
The constitution of the The Federal Government
United States (Sovereign over federal
law)

The constitution of the The State Governments


various States (Sovereign over state
law)
Executive Authority
Every law enforcement agency has a Chief of police/police
chief executive official. commissioner/superintendent/sheriff
Deputy Chief of police/Deputy
The most common title is;
Commissioner/Deputy
• Police Chief Superintendent/undersheriff
• Sheriff Inspector/commander/colonel
Major/deputy inspector
• Director
Captain
• Superintendent Lieutenant
• Colonel Sergeant
Detective/Inspector/Investigator
• Commissioner Officer/Deputy Sheriff/corporal
• Martial
• Chief constable
Centralized Systems
Police control under direct control of the National Government

• Characteristics:
1. National Government held accountable
for success or failure of law enforcement
2. Rights of society outweigh those of
individual citizens
Example: France, Italy, finland, Israel, Thailand, Taiwan, Ireland,
Denmark, and Sweden
Police in France

1. Single System of law administration of justice


2. Servants of the Republic rather than
local governments
Police in France
Law enforcement bodies
• In France, the State is responsible for protecting persons and
property, maintaining public order and enforcing the law.
These tasks are performed by two institutions, the Police
Nationale and the Gendarmerie Nationale.
• Other government institutions are responsible for law
enforcement in their particular sectors.
• Two main examples are the Direction générale des Douanes
et Droits indi-rects (Customs Office) and the Direction
générale de la Concurrence, de la Consom-mation et de la
Repression des Fraudes (Competition, Consumption and
Fraud Office), both of which are departments of the Ministry
of Finance.
• Possible Role Models: Police
Structures in
Established
Democracies

JAPAN, USA, ENGLAND and France


Possible Role Models: Police Structures in
Established Democracies
• Describing the police structures and police
reform in established democracies serves two
purposes. On the one hand, those states are
likely to serve as role models for states in
transition to democracy.
• On the other hand, it serves as a frame of
reference to asses whether the police
structures in the case studies are rather
centralized or decentralized by international
comparison.
ENGLAND
• The police structures in England and Wales are
identical. In Scotland the local control is exercised
mainly through representatives of the judiciary and
less through local council members. In Northern
Ireland the centralized colonial policing model has
been kept until today. But a police reform is part of
the peace agreement of 2006.
• On some Channel Islands unpaid constables are still
part of the policing system (Mawby 1999: 33, 41-45,
BBC 2006).
USA
• the characteristic of the US policing system
are police agencies on all state levels: the
municipality, the county, the state, and the
federal level.
• The system is clearly decentralized, when it
comes to preventive policing and emergency
response. But the federal level has increasing
competencies when it comes to the
investigation of trans-state crimes and
especially organized crime.
Policing in France
• The main characteristic of the French police
structure remained the different centralized
police forces, which are accountable to
different national ministries.
JAPAN
• This police structure is in existence in Japan
until today. In essence, it can be described
as centralized system, with minor
decentralized consultation mechanisms.
The Police Kobans

Chuzaiso Kobans
POLICE IN JAPAN
• The police in Japan stand out as an apolitical
body that function under the general
supervision of independent agencies free of
direct central government executive control.
The police are further checked by an
independent judiciary and monitored by a
free and active press.
National Public Safety Commission
(NPSC)
• The NPSC is a governmental body responsible mainly
for the administrative supervision of the police and
coordination of police administration.
• It also oversees matters relating to police education,
communication, criminal identification, criminal
statistics, and police equipment.
• Originally installed by the Occupation Forces to
“democratize” the Japanese police, the public safety
commissions emerged as a powerful institution
buffering the NPA and prefectural forces from public
scrutiny and political influence.
National Police Organization
The National Public Safety Commission and the National Police
Agency constitute Japan’s national police organization.
National Public Safety Commission
• The National Public Safety Commission exercises administrative
supervision over the National Police Agency.
• While the Commission is under the jurisdiction of the Prime
Minister, the Prime Minister is not empowered to exercise direct
command or control.
• This ensures the Commission’s independence and its political
neutrality.
NPSC
• The NPSC is composed of a Minister of State as its
chair, and five other members appointed by the prime
minister with the consent of both houses of the Diet.
• The Minister of State is positioned as the chairman of
the NPSC to facilitate a balance between ensuring
political neutrality and clarifying the cabinet’s
responsibilities regarding public safety .
• The remaining members of the NPSC can be members
of the public, lawyers, journalists etc.
• Retired police officers are only eligible if removed from
the police for over 10 years.
System of Public Safety
Commissions
National Police Agency (NPA)
• The NPA is the central coordinating body for the entire
police system in Japan empowered under Article 13 of
the Police Law 1954 .
• It is responsible for determining general standards and
policies, as well as funding through its central office ,
while detailed direction of operations is left to the lower
echelons of the police in the prefectures.
• Only in case of a national emergency or a large-scale
disaster is the agency authorized to take command of
prefectural police forces.
National Police Agency
Organization and Authority
• The NPA is headed by a Commissioner General
• who is appointed or dismissed by the Commission
with the approval of the Prime Minister.
• The Commissioner General, under the administrative
supervision of the Commission, administers the
agency’s operations, appoints and dismisses agency
employees and supervises and controls prefectural
police organizations within the agency’s defined
duties:
National Police Academy
NRIPS and IGH
Regional Police Bureaus (RPB)
• The National Police Agency maintains regional police bureaus,
each responsible for a number of prefectures. There are seven
bureaus in the major cities, excluding Tokyo and the northern
island of Hokkaido. Each is headed by a Director General and
has an organizational set up similar to the central office.
• The RPB’s are responsible for certain duties given under Article
5 (2) of the Police Law. These RPBs are located in major cities
of each geographic region.
• Each RPB exercises necessary control and supervision over
prefectural police within its jurisdiction as well as provides
them with support services under the authority and orders of
NPA’s Commissioner General. Attached to each RPB is a
Regional Police School which provides training to police
personnel for all prefectures that come under it.
Organization in the Prefectures
• Each prefectural government is a local entity and comparable to a
state/provincial government in South Asia. The Police Law 1954
stipulates that each prefecture shall have its own Prefectural
Police (PP).
• The PP is supervised by the Prefectural Public Safety Commission
(PPSC), similar to the NPSC, and the PP’s are responsible for
carrying out all police duties within the boundaries of the
prefecture.
• These police are then sub-divided at the Police Station and Police
sub-station levels. This organization only differs on the island of
Hokkaido . The PP headquarters are under the supervision and
control of RPB’s of the NPA within defined duties under Article
5(2) of Police Law 1954
RPB
Organization in the Prefectures
THE LINE OF COMMAND
Rank
Police officers are divided into nine
ranks:
1. superintendent general,
2. Superintendent supervisor,
3. chief superintendent,
4. senior superintendent
5. superintendent ,
6. Police inspector,
7. assistant police inspector,
8. police sergeant and
9. police officer.
Promotion
The police promotion process differs according to
rank.
• Promotion up to police inspector is based on
written examination and professional
accomplishment. In each case, however,
knowledge, skill and experience are taken into
consideration.
• Promotion to superintendent or above is based
on an evaluation of ability, experience and work
record.
Pay and Welfare
• Because police work is inherently dangerous, police officers are
paid under a special pay scale. Their initial salary in the case of
high school graduates is, on average, approximately 15% higher
than that of administrative service personnel.
• Police officers who engage in dangerous or difficult duties, such
as criminal investigation, traffic control and vehicle patrols, are
also paid special allowances.
Recruitment
• Recruitment procedures of NPA police officers differ from those
of the Prefectural Police Headquarters.
• The NPA recruits from those who have passed the National
Public Service Examinations conducted by the National
Personnel Authority.
• These officers are assigned either to the NPA or the PPH as key
members.
Educational Training
• Newly recruited prefectural police officers undergo an initial
training program consisting of pre-service training course, on-
the-job training, pre-service progress course, and the actual
exercise course.
• Educated training for high school graduates is 21 months (15
months for university graduates).
• High school graduates first attend a ten-month pre-service
training course at the prefectural police school (6 months for
university graduates). During the course, they acquire basic
community policing knowledge and skills.
• After graduation, they are assigned to a police station for 3
months of on-the-job training under instruction of a senior
officer.
Assessment
• The public safety model was applied in Pakistan through the ill-
fated Police Order 2002, where, similar to Japan, the public
safety commissions where divided at the national, provincial
and district level.
• “Pakistan is the only country in Asia other than Japan to have
instituted the transparent system of neutral oversight of its law
enforcement agencies”, Minister for Interior, Aftab Ahmad
Khan Sherpao stated in 2006 . Due to poor implementation, this
model has not been successful in Pakistan, and was seen simply
as a politically motivated move by the Musharraf government to
have greater federal control over provincial police.
Cont;
• Perhaps the main difference lies in our societies.
• The Japanese, for well over a century have acquiesced to
observe the unceasing duty of balancing the conflicting
demands of traditional hierarchy, discretion, circumspection
and reticence on the one hand, with Western-style ambition,
logic and assertive argumentation on the other particularly in
the post-war period.
• The discipline and homogeneity of their population is the
probable reason for their success as compared to other Asian
and western counterparts

http://www.nipsa.in/newsletter/2010-2/october-2010/
Participation of PNP Personnel in UN
Peacekeeping Missions
• Peacekeeping is defined by the United Nations
as "a unique and dynamic instrument
developed by the Organization as a way to
help countries torn by conflict create the
conditions for lasting peace“.
Duty of Peacekeepers
• Peacekeepers monitor and observe peace
processes in post-conflict areas and assist ex-
combatants in implementing the peace
agreements they may have signed. •
Accordingly UN peacekeepers (often referred
to as Blue Beret because of their light blue
berets or helmets) can include soldiers, police
officers, and civilian personnel.
